R2-D2 Fridge Guard Bleeps to Prevent Bloops

Do you sometimes forget to close your refrigerator door? Hamee has a geeky solution from a galaxy far, far away. Its R2-D2 Talking Fridge Gadget (R2-D2TFG) is meant to stay inside your fridge and will bleep if the fridge door is left open for some time.

Aside from its friendly reminder, R2-D2TFG will also greet you every time you open the fridge with his astromech lingo, LED and swiveling head. Sneaky snackers might not care for that.

You can also manually activate the toy by pressing the button on its head.

I’m not sure if Hamee really needs the money seeing as it’s already a successful mobile phone accessory maker, but in any case you can pledge at least ¥3,000 (~$26 USD) on Japanese fundraiser site Makuake to get an R2-D2TFG as a reward.
